James Deen got a little more than he bargained for when he signed up to shoot a porno with Teen Mom 2 alum Farrah Abraham. The adult film star, 27, actually turned down the offer initially but later agreed to do it as long as it didn't turn into a media circus — which of course it did. Speaking about the experience in a new interview for the October issue of Playboy magazine, Deen set the record straight about what really went down between him and the MTV reality personality.

"I got a call, and they asked if I wanted to do a celebrity sex tape with Farrah. They said, 'We'll set it up so it looks like you guys are dating, and then TMZ will find out and it'll be all over the TV,'" he recalled. "I said, 'No, I don't want to do that. Hire somebody else.' But they promised me the media wouldn't be involved. I made sure they knew I was going to tell the truth if anybody asked me about it."

He continued: "So we shoot the movie, and as we're leaving her hotel room, some paparazzo takes our picture. The next day I get a call from TMZ asking if I was dating Farrah Abraham. I said no. 'Well, what were you doing at that hotel?' 'Shooting a porno.' And that's when the f–king drama train hit."

The "drama train," as Deen calls it, involved Abraham publicly slamming her partner in the porn flick for talking about what she said was a "personal sex tape." She claimed the X-rated video was for her own use — though that didn't stop her from selling it to porn company Vivid Entertainment for an amount in the "high six figures."

"During the Lindsay drama, I got a firsthand lesson in how tabloids spin a story. They got shots of us coming out of a bar together, holding hands and getting into her car. TMZ was like, 'What's going on? Are they an item?'" he told Playboy. "We were playing a couple in a movie! We were hanging out before the movie and getting to know each other. When we left the bar together, she was drunk, so I drove her home because I was sober and she has a bad history with that. End of story."

Deen said if he had his choice of A-listers, he'd pick Halle Berry or Charlize Theron — based on looks, at least. "They're undeniably gorgeous," he explained. "But I don't know them. For all I know, they're complete bitches. Personality goes a long way."

One other stipulation? No clowns. "I won't have sex with anyone dressed like a clown," he said. "They are creepy. I've done it only once, and it was terrifying."
